I can select and move some aspect of the drawing out of the way, or in a better place as the drawing evolves.With selection comes scaling: that big circle takes up too much space Select and scale down.
#OMNIGRAFFLE SEQUENCE DIAGRAM TEMPLATE FULL#
For better or worse this is almost exactly an infinite paper notebook (or, suitcase full of folders of paper notebooks). Turns out I have different tools for different tasks, depending on how much I have to share the diagram or how big the diagram is going to be.
Nothing takes me out of flow faster than having to right click control l shift, now which part of the dialog box lets me control line thickness gain, etc. I almost mostly want to optimize for fast diagramming tools that give me relatively good results while in the middle of brainstorming by doing. So, given I might need to either write a quick diagram down to explain something, or to add to source code documentation, or as a guide for myself, how do I do it? What makes it kind of worse is that now a days I’m very cross-platform: while I still enjoy the power duo of OmniOutliner and OmniGraffle, I currently use Windows for work, and most of my after hours experimentation happens either on Windows or Linux.
